Abilene Christian College did
not play the part of a gracious
host Saturday as the Wildcats
upset both A&M and Rice in a
triangular track meet held in
Abilene.
ACC picked up 66 points, Rice
had 55'/2 and the Aggies finished
last with 49>/2 points.
“We weren’t really out to win
the meet,” assistant coach Ted
Nelson said. “We were just try
ing to keep everyone healthy to
compete in the Kansas Relays
this weekend.”
With both Billy Porter and
Marvin Mills absent from the
100-yard dash, Steve Barre took
the blue ribbon in the event with
a time of 9.7 in one of his best
performances of the season.

the 120-yard high hurdles in a
time of 14.1. Edgar Harvey took
second in a time of 14.5.
In the high jump, the Aggies
took first, second and fourth
places. Phil McGuire won the
event with a jump of 6-6 fol
lowed by Marvin Taylor also with
a 6-6 but with more misses. Mark
Smith took fourth with a 6-4.
Willie Blackmon, who has the
best conference time in the 880-
yard run, ran the mile instead
hoping to increase his endurance
for the upcoming nationally re
cognized meet. He took fifth in
the event.
The 440-yard relay made up of
Robert Brew, Alan Swagerty,
Barre and Donny Rogers took
second in a time of 41.5.
Horace Grant won the 880-yard
run, in the absence of Blackmon,
in a time of 1:56.4. Dennis
O’Brien took fourth in the event.
In the 220-yard dash, Barre
took second in the time of 21.4.
Mills and Porter were again ab
sent in the event.
ACC sneaked up on both A&M
and Rice by running its fastest
man on the first leg of the mile
relay causing a 15-yard lead.
Mills was next to run and caught
up with the ACC man about mid
way through his leg but fell be
hind at the finish line. Grant,
who ran the third leg, had the
same fate and too much room was
needed to make up as the Aggies
slipped to third place in 3:15.3.
“We just couldn’t run steady
with ACC’s lead,” Nelson said.
“We could have beaten Rice for
second place if the kids would
have just run their normal pace
but when they tried to gain that
lead, they just didn’t have enough
to finish up strong.”
Harold McMahan took second
in the pole vault with a 15-6.
Dave Roberts, Rice’s top pole
vaulter, vaulted 17-0 to win the
event.
Tim Brown took fourth in the
discus with a toss of 150-6/2
while ACC’s Bruce Hogan took
the event with a 178-6.
In the shot put, A&M’s Tom
Palmer also took fourth with a
heave of 46-7. In the javelin,
Paul Sanders took fourth with
156-111/2.
“Things look pretty good for us
at the Kansas Relays,” Nelson
said. “For the first time in a
while, we’ve got most of our key
people healthy. Doug Brodhead is
the only top performer still uncer
tain but we think he’ll be able to
run a leg on our mile relay team.”
Netters host Longhorns
in Wednesday match
By BILL HENRY
Assistant Sports Editor
The Texas Longhorns will visit
A&M’s Varsity Courts Wednes
day afternoon at 1:30 to take on
the Aggies in tennis. The winner
of the meet will emerge as the
Southwest Conference third place
finisher.
The Aggies home matches have
become a tradition against Texas
as the Longhorns have not defeat
ed the Aggies at home since 1962.
Assistant tennis coach Richard
Barker started the tradition when
he was a senior in 1964 at which
time the Aggies first defeated
Texas.
Two years ago was the most
exciting match as Texas was very
highly rated and expected to
march over the hapless Aggies.
A&M wasn’t to be denied that day
and pulled an upset tie to knock
Texas out of the conference cham
pionship. Dickie Fikes, Tommy
Connell, Dan Courson and Lawton
Park, who were on the team in
1970, expect another upset of
Texas.
“Texas is real strong,” coach
Omar Smith said. “It will be a
real dog fight to see who will take
third in the conference. We still
have a chance for a second place
tie if we beat Texas 7-0 and Bay
lor can take a couple of games
away from SMU.”
Rice and SMU, the top two
SWC teams, have beaten both
A&M and Texas. Rice humiliated
Texas in the first conference meet
of the season, 6-1, while SMU
beat the Longhorns by a slim
4-3 margin. A&M lost to both
clubs by identical 5-2 margins.
Rice did all but capture the
title Saturday by losing to SMU,
4-3. The Mustangs can take pride
in being the only team in the
conference to beat the nation’s
No. 3 team but will have to look
back on its inconsistency against
weaker conference foes to find
excuses for second place.
The Aggies have a two match
winning streak going by defeat
ing Baylor Saturday, 7-0, and
NOW OPEN!
